EP Guided Procedure via Mobile Devices

[Former Member]

Hello,

We are on EP7.0 and are implementing a PO approval workflow via Guided Procedure using Visual Composer.

This workflow can have one or more approval levels.

We are setting up email notifications for the various approval steps such that cooresponding approvers can approve through Microsoft Outlook Emails.

However there is also a requirement for approvers to be able to approve via their Mobile devices like Blackberry, Apple iPhone etc.

What is the best way to go about doing this?

regards,

Atul

Hi Atul,

As you know, you can't navigate on the portal with a mobile client (I mean the portal framework), you can develop a webdynpro that acts like a UWL and program functionality for approve or reject workitems.

Hi Atul,

You can use the Web approach as stated in the previous posts or you can develop your own "native" application for BlackBerry using the [Guided Procedures (GP) API |http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/gp/index.html].

You could for instance create SOAP or REST Web Services and then consume theses Web Services with the mobile client.

Hi

If you have already developed webdynpro views, you can use run those in mobile browser through a URL.
